According to a recent report from TMZ, Pauly D met his baby mama during a brief DJ gig in Las Vegas. Although they met in Sin City, Pauly D’s fling is also proud to call New Jersey home. She is said to have filed paperwork in the Garden State with the intention of establishing paternity. Pauly D obliged in a DNA test and, lo and behold, found out that the little bundle of joy was most definitely a product of his Vegas night of debauchery. We like to imagine the reality star receiving the life-changing news Maury style…”Pauly D, you are the father!”

The Jersey Shore star was happy to confirm the rumors, explaining to TMZ, “I’m proud I’m a father. I am excited to embark on this new part of my life.”
